Beschreibung
We demonstrate a two-color entangled photon pair source which can be adapted easily to a wide range of wavelengths combinations. A Fresnel rhomb as a geometrical quarter-wave plate and a versatile combination of compensation crystals are key components of the source. Entanglement of two photons at the Cs D1 line (894.3 nm) and at the telecom O-band (1313.1 nm) with a fidelity of F=0.753$\pm$0.021 is demonstrated and improvements of the setup are discussed.
